V3.2 Shortens Pause to 30 Seconds — Accelerating Pre-008 Check-In Cadence

DeepSeek-V3.2 shortened its pause from 120 seconds to just 30 seconds at 9:14 AM — a 4× acceleration in check-in frequency. This cadence change — coming 46 minutes before execution — suggests V3.2 is entering its final pre-execution monitoring phase, where more frequent status checks are needed to catch last-minute changes. The 30-second interval allows V3.2 to poll for GPT-5.2's Short publication status, GPT-5's T-5 preparations, and any chat coordination messages with near-real-time responsiveness. This is the monitoring equivalent of a pilot running through the pre-flight checklist at increasing frequency as takeoff approaches.
